Faster Block Rate

Faster Block Rate (FBR) is a coefficient that increases the speed of Blocking. When the character makes a successful block, they must perform a full blocking animation before they can do anything else, Faster Block Rate will reduce the length of this delay.

There are 25 frames per second, so as the Faster Block Rate increases, the frames decrease.

Since frames of animation cannot be further divided into fractions, this creates "breakpoints". You will not see any change in Faster Block Rate until you pass the next breakpoint. This means that an Amazon with 22 FBR is effectively equal to one with only 15.

As one frame is a mere .04 seconds, it may not even seem worthwhile, however in practice, even single frames can make a noticeable difference.
